Arrowhead Game Studios said it is tightening its checks for suspicious Super Credit gains in Helldivers 2 after player feedback kept circling back to cheating and exploit abuse. In the official Steam update, the studio said the new monitoring is aimed at accounts earning credits at an unreasonably high rate, far beyond the highest legitimate totals it has recorded.
The important part for regular players is that this should not change how the game feels when you are out clearing maps, looting points of interest, or opening bunkers. Arrowhead said the new limits are meant to catch bad actors, not slow down honest squads grinding through missions.
The studio drew a hard line at cheaters, botters, and anyone using automation or duplication exploits to pull in Super Credits at impossible rates. It also said the same anti-abuse work will roll out for other reward currencies, including Medals, Samples, and Requisition.
If something looks wrong on your account, Arrowhead said its support team will review cases through Arrowhead Player Support. The studio framed the change as a way to keep earned rewards meaningful while shutting down the kinds of exploits that drag the economy down for everyone else.
